Date of visit: May 9, 2026 Server: Marissa…read more We walked by this fun spot on our way to Screen Door, and then turned around and came back here when the wait at that other establishment was nearing two hours. Marissa was hilarious and fun, which I would like to think is also how people describe me from time to time. My chicken Caesar wrap was excellent, with a flavorful tortilla and crisp lettuce inside. I paired it with the tomato soup, and it made for a lovely meal. Decor is very pub-like, but we found the tables to be comfortable and those facing the windows got to scope out all the dogs passing by, a nice bonus. Really the only false note was the root beer. I don't drink soda often, but appreciate a good locally made RB, however this was a swing and a miss, with a way too heavy taste of sarsaparilla.

This place is always a great time. Whether you have a large group or a smaller one. Dont know where…read moreyou wanna go one night? Looking to watch the game? Need a good pizza? (With fire gluten free crust) THIIIS is the spot. The only thing that is annoying is the QR code menu's I could do without, big fan of keeping it on physical paper. Besides that, your cocktails and beer will come out cold and great flavor profiles. Staff is quick with their service and there's no wrong choices with the food.

When in Portland, craft beer. And for a good craft beer…read moreselection, 10 Barrel Brewing in Portland is surely one of the best options! And the rooftop area at 10 Barrel? Marvelous! So relaxing and cool to have drinks on the top of the building. Staff was all friendly and helpful in ordering. If they have their spiced 5.5% Savage Belly on tap when you're in, that was my most highly rated beer of the day on Untappd. Also enjoyed the 6.9% Joe IPA and the 5.9% Fukton (Fresh Hop) Pale Ale quite a bit. 10 Barrel Brewing is def one of the cool spots to have a pint in Pearl District!

The bar has a quirky and industrial layout but great beer choices. Only a me person taking orders and serving on a Friday evening. I can't really speak for their food as it didn't look like they were serving. Would definitely come back again.

Looking for a top 3 beer in the PNW? Well, here you go! I will seek out most any Great Notion…read morestyle brew but I'm partial to their Hazy IPAs and their sours. It's no secret and there's no denying why this brewery continues to bring home gold medals for their different styles. They are 100% dialed in on what it takes to make good beer. As far as the interior space, it's pretty much industrial standard. Better than a warehouse but really just a no frills space to down some delicious cold beer. If I'm being honest, I don't come here for food because they mostly have pizza I believe and for my money their are better places to grab a slice. Don't let this deter you though, I've had the pizza, it isn't bad at all just not a driver for me to visit. Grab some friends, or just yourself and try this place!

Favorite beers in Portland. They are known for their quality. The food is the perfect pairing to…read moresome great beer, but I've definitely been to spots with better food, so knocking down one star for that. Otherwise, like I said.. favorite beer in Portland. Staff is friendly and it's a lively spot most times.

It's truly disappointing when restaurants and other businesses choose to take a political stance…read morethat makes some customers feel unwelcome simply because of their beliefs or support for the Constitution. My wife and I drove over 30 minutes to visit this location because we were looking forward to enjoying good BBQ, tacos and a beer. Unfortunately, the political signage displayed throughout the windows and establishment made us feel unwelcome, so we decided not to stay. Great Notion and Matt's BBQ Tacos, you've pushed away customers who came ready to support your business and spend money with you. I wish you the best, but it seems you've chosen to operate not only as a restaurant and brewery, but also as a platform for political messaging. That's your right, of course, but it's a direction that may alienate customers who simply want to enjoy good food and drinks without politics being part of the experience.

Years later, and I still enjoy Great Notion. When an out-of-town guest asks for some "fun beer,"…read morethis is where I take them. The Blueberry Muffin is an all-time favorite, and even though I get annoyed when they're sold out, it's never enough to keep me away. Most times I get a flight and try a bunch of different things. This location is charming. It has the industrial decor that now feels cliché but was groundbreaking for beer and burger spots a decade ago. With a very large patio and big garage doors, it's great during summer especially. Staff is knowledgeable about their beer, patient while we deliberated, and did us a favor to help the beer travel on the plane. The kitchen is now operated by Matt's BBQ Tacos (which I will review separately).

The sauce was the main flavor experience. Will be back to try others. Music was a vibe and not too loud. Lots of fun places to sit and a loft (that i did not explore)

The food is also fine, but in a city that's getting to be overloaded with amazing pizza options, this wouldn't make the list. The outside seating is nice, but gets grabbed quickly. Inside is nice and service is decent. I don't have anything bad to say, it's just solidly 'fine'.

We stopped in late on a Saturday night and the place was packed! We found 3 seats at the bar and…read moreordered up 3 beer flights. The girls behind the bar were great; friendly, helpful and outgoing. It's a large open space with lots of seating, a merchandise area and a walled off section of booths.

I love the space as well, though if you're looking for somewhere for a quiet conversation and welcoming pastels this is NOT your spot. I wish we could bring the kids to hang out with us on the patio at least, but Portland permitting is weird AF. Love the merch, love the tap lists, love the events, love the cooler; what more can I say? To top it all off they have El Viejon serving some of the best mexican food anywhere in Portland right in the joint! I've yet to try a single dish that's not delicious and many are absolute favorites. Get a cali burrito and call it a day; you'll be set! Sam et al; you guys are amazing and we really appreciate you! I genuinely only wish I had more time to come spend enjoying Brujos.

Brujos is a hidden gem in NW/slabtown that everyone should try at least once…read more They just completed an interior renovation of the bar, and damn, is it ever a cool design and space. I am a big fan of the indoor/outdoor flow for the space, especially on nice weather afternoons like we have had recently. Outdoor seating is limited, so be prepared to sit inside. Interior seating is not the most comfortable, with former church bleachers that are quite bouncy or large and hard game of thrones-like high chairs. The team is super friendly and will send you to the food station or the bar depending on your needs, and, with the good quality Mexican cuisine on service, you'll want a taco or two. The brewery specializes in Hazy/IPAs, to come expecting to enjoy these PNW basics. I swapped between them and non-alcoholic options since hazies are not my favorite but everyone I was with loved them. The restrooms are clean and there are plenty of bike stands to make this a car-free journey.
